over seasons

over seasons, like so many times before
you drop drop drop it 'til you break down the walls
over seasons, when you come disobey
just keep on droppin' 'til the break of the day
over seasons, like so many times before
you drop drop drop it till you break down the walls
over seasons, when you come not obey
just keep drop drop drop drop:
back in 1994 there was no reason that we had wanted to play
but a vision of expression
an ability to reason with the worries in our lives
an ability we'd recognized
how many times, would composition turn into confession?
building a foundation for our youth to grow into progression
making our days, free-will reside, we say!
now you know things ain't right
and the pressure that you're granted from this life
and forever you had wondered what's in store
til you stand up and not take it anymore!
doubted about the things you do
and defiant of your scattered mental institute
no second guessing when it's already past
denying that it wouldn't last
here's to the days, here's to the nights
throughout the years, how many fights?
here's to the daze that paved the way! we say!
now you know things ain't right
and the pressure that you're granted from this life
and forever you had wondered what's in store
that's when you stand up and not take it anymore!
like we'd done before!
the seize of day, turned on into night!
and open wide!

revolution

look at the blueprints as they disappear
gaze at the blank space filled with all our fears
to make a move could mean devastation
to take a chance is the way to face them
making a choice to take a different road

you want a revolution?
you've got to make a difference on your own
you want a revolution?
stand up, stand out and make it known

a new state, renovation
a new day, brings rejuvenation
these days, another way no replay
no replay, i think about it this way
time's up, how can i say that's okay?
too late, i should've, could've maybe
why wait when in the end it could be my last big mistake?

you want a revolution?
you've got to make a difference on your own
you want a revolution?
stand up, stand out and make it known

face first, new days, choices we've made
face first, new days, the choices we make
face first our ability to choose
i make a change instead of saying that it's just fine
time to open up and time to realize
you can make a difference if you try

you want a revolution?
you've got to make a difference on your own
you want a revolution?
stand up, stand out and make it known
you've got to stand up and make it known
you want a revolution?

one more minute

i'm going back to where i came from
so far away, but not so far from home
where i lay my head down by the sea
i'm going back to where we'd go
so far away,but not so far from home
where i'd rest, where i'd lay so peacefully

but bye the way
i want a break, and want to put this stress aside
but above all things i wanna lay by the oceanside
the ocean waves, no other, get away
well i'm finding!
oh no,my daily worries want to drift away, fine!
dying and trying just to find some sort of peace of mind
now's the time, to get away, i'm going away!

no other place to go
i've got to get away, let's get away!
away...

one more minute, the beaches san diego
one more minute!
one more minute, the beaches mexico
one more minute!
one more minute, we kick it back pool side
one more minute, and we're down bye the ocean side
one more minute
so far away, and dowdy on the beach
i want to clear my head and break it in the warm sunshine
want to relay relaxation
with the horizon straight away
and a ring around my arm from a long day
of making angels in the sand
picifico in my hand!

no other place to go
i've got to get away, let's get away!
away...

one more minute, the beaches san diego
one more minute!
one more minute, the beaches mexico
one more minute!
one more minute, we kick it back pool side
one more minute, and we're down bye the ocean side
one more minute
the sunshine in my eyes, and the flamenco in the skies
the only way you'll ever know, is to go, is to go!

away...

one more minute, the beaches san diego
one more minute!
one more minute, the beaches mexico
one more minute!
one more minute, we kick it back pool side
one more minute, and we're down bye the ocean side
one more minute

shed the light all day

one more minute, the beaches san diego
one more minute!
one more minute, the beaches mexico
one more minute!
one more minute, we kick it back pool side
one more minute, and we're down bye the ocean side
one more minute

shed the light all day

everyday

i look around
and it's the same old situation on a different day
these masses of confrontation beating me down
i'm picking at the pieces to put them all back into place
a never ending crossword of questions collaborates
while asking myself
where are we going in time?
but hey, everyday
i'll pick my feet up off the ground
and everyday you'll see
i don't make believe
that everything is okay, but in the end
the life that you choose to lead is your fate
you'll see
communication with yourself and asking
"is this really where i want to be?"
no way!
patronized, antagonized, and bound beyond
the boundaries of everyday life
a mutual enmity for a system of conformity
and asking myself
is this really where i want to be?
anchors away, don't let it drag you down oh no!
but hey everyday, i'll pick my feet up off the ground
and everyday you'll see, i don't make believe
that everything is okay, but in the end
the life that you choose to lead is your fate
you'll see?!!!
well i know by now, but keep wondering how
how many times will i fall?
i'll keep standing tall!
everything you talk about and everything you see
everybody's trying to tell you who you want to be
don't try to separate reality from dreaming
trust yourself, keep on believing
i think i can is all that you can really tell yourself
just keep on
and moving my friend oh yeah someday you're gonna see!
that hey everyday
well i'll pick my feet up off the ground
and everyday, you'll see, i don't make believe
that everything is okay, but in the end
the life that you choose to lead is your fate
you're gonna see

lying awake

lying awake, lost in time
with no reason to turn around and put it all aside yeah!
here today, gone tomorrow
while drowning in all of their sorrows!
at age 14 no inhibitions
and i sure as hell did not need your permission
never looking forward
and i was never looking back
and i'd never known what's next
but as the days had gone by
both ignorant and blind
new visions of a world started filling my eyes!
tossing and turning, with eyes open wide
that is where i find!
i'm lying awake, lost in time
with no reason to turn around and put it all aside yeah!
here today, gone tomorrow
while drowning in all of their sorrows!
years go by as we start to see
so many generations torn by poverty and greed
so many whining that their lives are oh so bad
but far better than so many, it's sad!
becoming intoxicated by all of the madness
and all of the pain that they've been through
hoping and searching, a world in despair, right outside, no more!
i'm lying awake, lost in time
with no reason to turn around and put it all aside yeah!
here today, gone tomorrow, while drowning in all of their sorrows!
there's just got to some other way
those people are dying today
there's just got to be some other time
that they are going to
there's just got to be some sort of progress
some other way they're going to know
there's just got to be another means to an end
here's to hoping that it will show!
wake up!
like some people in our society
and it grows, planted like a seed
so what do we do when it comes down on you
cries ring out as a chime for awakening
taking the time to listen up, maybe don't turn away
maybe showing interest could show them light of day
well it's a pretty fine line as community paces
stepping up to the edge daily different cases
(Oh can't you see their faces coming around, so many faces,
different places with so many face down)
third world tragedy, another in store
another taste of what's real, can they take anymore?
lying awake
lost in time with no reason to turn around
and put it all aside, yeah!
here today, gone tomorrow, while drowning in all of their sorrows
awake, lost in time
with no reason to turn around and put it all aside, yeah!
here today gone tomorrow, while drowning in all of their sorrows!
i'm lying awake!
